In ‘Don’t Knock Yourself Out’, the fascinating story of the making of cult television favourite ‘The Prisoner’ is told by the people who were there. Patrick McGoohan’s perplexing masterpiece caused a sensation when it burst onto British television screens in 1967 and, despite running for only 17 episodes, has left audiences debating its meaning for almost sixty years. • Amongst this feature-length documentary’s interviewees are; Wanda Ventham (UFO), Peter Wyngarde (Department S, Jason King), Derren Nesbitt (Where Eagles Dare, Special Branch), Fennella Fielding (Carry On Screaming), Annette Andre (Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased)), Earl Cameron (The Power Game, Doctor Who, Inception), Mark Eden (Coronation Street) and Peter Bowles (To The Manor Born). Appearing via archive materials are; Lord Lew Grade, Leo McKern (Rumpole of the Bailey), David Tomblin (The Protectors, Space: 1999), and Patrick McGoohan (Danger Man, Ice Station Zebra, Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow). • The Prisoner was a British television series that ran on ITV between 1967 and 1968. McGoohan portrayed Number Six, an unnamed British intelligence agent who is abducted and imprisoned in a mysterious coastal village after resigning from his position. The allegorical plotlines of the series contained elements of science fiction, psychological drama, and spy fiction. It was produced by Everyman Films for distribution by Lew Grade's ITC Entertainment. • -------------------------------------------------------------------- • Find us online! • • Century 21 Films Facebook - / century21films • • Century 21 Films Twitter - / century21films • • Thunderbirds Facebook - / thunderbirds65 • • Thunderbirds Twitter - / thunderbirds65 • • Instagram - / century21films • • Website - https://www.century21films.co.uk • • Shop - https://century21films.bigcartel.com/ • -------------------------------------------------------------------- • About Us: • About Me: • Century 21 Films Ltd is a multi-faceted production company whose work spans drama to documentary, miniature effects to puppet shows.
